The Elk Island National Park

National Parks are one of the great gifts of nature. National Parks are often a designated area of wilderness kept preserve to protect wildlife and biodiversity in the society. This site attracts multiple people around the world leading to explore nature and understand the life around this park. The importance of the park brings many cultures together to experience the recreational activities the Olympic National Park provides. The Olympic National Park is one of the great national parks in the United States. This National Park is one of the top most visited parks in the United States. It continues to show its great features and reasons as a park, World Heritage site, and the many ecosystems it inhabits.

Throughout the past decades it has become evident that Isle Royale does not receive many visitors when compared to other National Parks. Due to this human interaction with the national park has been kept to a minimum over the years A sub-claim that can be formed by this information is that Isle Royale has maintained such quality wildlife because of its lack of human interactment. One subclaim I have formed based on my research is that humans only have a negative impact on Isle Royale. Rolf Peterson: Leader of the Wolf Moose Project on Isle Royale claims “In the island’s wilderness, which is as pristine as any in the continental United States, wolves have inadvertently recorded [in their teeth] the two

Yellowstone National Park, untamed wild beauty. Stunning landscapes, beautiful waterfalls and rivers, breathtaking wildlife, and geothermal activity all come together to make Yellowstone an amazing place. People come from all over the world to witness the beauty of Yellowstone. It is a regulated national park for a reason, it is so amazing, so beautiful, so spectacular to not preserve it. It hosts bison, elk, deer, bald eagles, bears, moose, beavers, and amazing trout rivers, everything a perfect mountain ecosystem should hold. However now there is something else, something that is natural, was removed but has now returned, flourishing and benefiting its surroundings. Wolves, have been reintroduced into Yellowstone and have greatly benefited the area. These wolves have started a positive and beneficial renewal in the park. The reintroduction of wolves into Yellowstone National Park is beneficial because they created and natural and beneficial trophic cascade, other animals in the park benefited from the wolves, and because the land was able to regrow and flourish due to the wolves’ presence.

In the essay, Seeing It In Person, it says," Visitors can hike around the canyon's rim and check out the scenery from above." When people are bored or they are not doing anything thing they could go to the Providence Canyon. If the government does not make it a nation park, then people would not be able to see the historic sites and could not do all that. That is another reason why the government should make it a national

While this article addresses various topics and discusses potential solutions, the foundation of these statements lie in the interest of elk and a passion for hunting, thereby exemplifying this organization's immense bias. Furthermore, these article makes no note of the organization authority or credibility, nor do they attempt to provide any validity, thus making this article strictly a statement of opinion.

Today one is lucky to see a deer in Washtenaw country, typically the most wild animal someone would come in contact with would be a squirrel in the daytime. That’s not the case for the little island in Lake Superior. Over 1500 moose call the island home. Nearly that many beaver do as well. At one point,

In Wisconsin the only state-endangered mammal is the American Marten. There are many theories on why the Marten has been having a rough time being reintroduced into the northern woods of Wisconsin. One of the theories is the Martens competition with Fisher, they exhibit overlapping niches and have developed a competition of the struggles for resources. However, they do coexist in Canada in have kept stable populations. The Marten doesn’t only have to face competition to hinder its effort to be reintroduced to the land it also faces climate change hurting the way fishers survive and thrive during the winter.

the role the national park will play into the future to provide benefit and relevant services to Canadians and a commitment to work with communities, organizations and individuals for a sustainable future and to sustain or improve the ecological integrity of the park.

Yellowstone became a national park in 1872, it is a proud monument to America’s wilderness and an incredibly vast park, over 3,500 miles. This park was once characterized by the Grey Wolf whom presided over it. Now, as you and I understand National parks are protected from hunting, fishing, forestry and other man made interferences in mother nature’s design. When Yellowstone was established officially there was no legislation preventing the hunting of the pack predator, so in the way humans tend to, the wolf was over hunted and made locally extinct in the 1930’s. At the time there was no evident reason for the protection of wolves, in fact they were a menace to American

The Wood Buffalo National Park is located in Canada and is a part of the Taiga Biome. You will see a variety of animals such as Wolves, Bears, and foxes. You will also see the Taiga’s keystone and indicator species in this area.

The Theodore Roosevelt National Park wasn’t a park in 1901 when Theodore Roosevelt was president. He had been living in this area and he had a love and respect for nature. While he was a President, he protected 230,000,000 acres of land. He did this by creating the first 55 federal wildlife refuges, 150 national forests, 5 national parks, and creating the first 18 national monument sites. Remembering his time spent in this area, he wanted to protect lands. As President, one of his greatest achievements was protecting America’s natural

The history of the Artic National Wildlife Refuge can be traced back to 1960. On December 6th, the Eisenhower administration signed Public Land order No. 2214 which established the 8.9 million acre Artic National Wildlife range. In 1980, Congress passed and Jimmy Carter signed the landmark Alaska National Interest Lands Conservative Act (ANILCA) that increased the protected area to 19.8 million acres, renamed the area to Artic National Wildlife Refuge, and established the original 8.6 million acres as wilderness. However, in the process of getting this act passed, the oil industry lobby succeeded in having the Senate refuge to designate the Coastal Plain as Wilderness. Section 1002 of the ANILCA legislation informed the

The debate about snow mobiles is that conservationists are concerned that the emissions from the snowmobiles, may impact wildlife, air and water quality, noise levels, and the pristine aesthetic of the Yellowstone wilderness (Millner, 2015) . On the other end of the spectrum, supporters think snowmobiling will provide economic benefits to local communities and the importance of preserving access to public lands (Millner, 2015). Gray wolves (95-1997) and bison (1905) were brought to Yellowstone National Park as reintroduction into their previous habitat after declining populations from overharvesting. The controversy with the reintroduction of the wolves is that the wolves would leave the park and kill the livestock of local ranchers (Smuclovisky, 2007). The controversy that exists today is that the National Park Service and the USFWS want to allow the bison to roam outside the park rather than keeping them within the park. This would allow the bison to search for food in the winter. However, ranchers and cattlemen believe that the bison would spread a disease known as brucellosis to their cattle and the bison would compete with their cattle for grass on public lands (National Park Trips,

Throughout the past few decades, Yellowstone National Park has undergone several amounts of environmental changes for both the positive and the negative. The YNP has mainly had population increases throughout the time period of 1994-2010 in areas of study such as riparian vegetation, ungulates and also other animals. Although the decline of elk and coyotes may prove otherwise, there is enough data to support that the majority of species in the YNP are rapidly growing. Throughout this case study, I noticed how each species played an important role in the overall ecosystem of Yellowstone, proving that all species are intradependant.
